    Looking for a new monitor

    Think I narrowed it down to 2. Differences don't seem to be much, unless there's something I'm missing....

    $219 with code http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/m...FH/ZA-features
    249 (staples blackfriday) http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/m...KD/ZA-features

    Think the 24" one is slightly better but the price makes me wonder

    That Samsung (the first one) is $199.99 with free shipping today on Newegg w/ promo code: EMCZZNN38

    I'm thinking of picking one up for myself. It has a 3 year warranty and at $200 it's not too bad a price.

    Guess I should have mentioned I'll be using mine for my PS3/360 in a little corner so 16x9 is just fine.

    Good point, I'll revise my statement: 16:9 is shit for a computer.

    You can get a Dell U2311H for around the $240-250 range shipped when they're on sale. It's 1920x1080, but has an IPS panel. It's something to consider.

    Check the Deals thread at the top of this forum - Newegg's got a Samsung monitor on special for $200 if you use a promo code.
